Amplifi Napa Valley Launches Jazz Society Fund with Legacy Gift from Napa Valley Jazz Society

New Fund to Support Emerging Artists and Preserve Jazz Legacy. Amplifi Napa Valley has announced the creation of the Jazz Society Fund, a new initiative dedicated to supporting emerging jazz artists and promoting the legacy of jazz in Napa Valley. The fund was inspired by and seeded with a generous legacy gift from the Napa Valley Jazz Society, which is closing its doors after decades of championing jazz in the region.

The Napa Valley Jazz Society has transferred $20,000 to Amplifi Napa Valley. Influenced by the Society’s contributions to the community, Amplifi established the Jazz Society Fund, which will support emerging artist grants, masterclasses, and sponsored events that advance jazz music and education in the community. Donors can contribute directly to ensure the fund’s long-term growth and impact.

The Napa Valley Jazz Society, founded in 2002, brought world-class jazz to the valley for over two decades. Through concerts, education, and community engagement, the Society established Napa Valley as a vibrant hub for jazz enthusiasts and musicians alike. The organization has brought renowned artists to Napa Valley for over 20 years.

“The Napa Valley Jazz Society has been a cornerstone of jazz in our community, and we are deeply honored to receive this gift,” said Olivia Dodd, CEO of Amplifi Napa Valley. “The Jazz Society Fund will ensure that jazz continues to thrive in Napa Valley by celebrating its history, sharing its art and craft, and investing in the next generation of artists.”

You can support this important contribution to Napa's legacy of jazz performance by contribution to this fund as we seek to match the original contribution establishing this dynamic fund. Please make your contribution today!
